I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

When that sword appeared at the moment of life and death less than a finger away from Ji Zihe's head, what was in his mind was that monks can also use swords?Oh, by the way, a monk who can't use a sword is not a good Taoist priest.

The woman in blue let go of Ji Zihe, leaning back, as light as a butterfly.

"Hey, sisters, here comes another mortal. Although he is a bit older, such old bones are the most delicious when broken." The woman in blue raised her sleeves and smiled lightly to cover her face.

"What my sister said is true." The other banshees who followed closely echoed.

"Heh, you can't hurt me here." The monk held a sword in his hand and said arrogantly.

Ji Zihe retreated quietly to the side, so he didn't want to be caught in the middle. Isn't this liar monk so afraid of being beaten?

"My current strength is indeed low, but don't forget, I am not the only one whose strength is suppressed after entering this Absolute Spirit Wall, isn't it the same for you?" The woman in blue sneered, looking at their The gaze is already on the plate.

"That's true, it's just that I have learned a few kung fus in the mortal world for many years, and there happens to be a kung fu that can fly over walls without spiritual power."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand? My time is precious, but I don't have time to play with you guys. I'll see you again." The monk put away his long sword, wrapped his long arms around Ji Zihe's waist, and clamped him under his armpit with one hand, He climbed onto the roof in a jiffy, and disappeared after a few jumps.

"Damn it, this monk came prepared." The woman in blue frowned and said.

"Sister, what should we do?"

"Hmph, in this Absolute Spirit Wall, can someone get rid of us?" The woman in blue snorted coldly, "Chase."

"Yes."

Ji Zihe was taken to fly more than once or twice, but the bones and the others flew very steadily before, and it was the first time for him to fly so bumpy.Ordinary people's lightness skills, the flying height is not high, and most of them need to borrow strength to fly.So the monk flew up and down for a while, but Ji Zihe found it quite exciting.

The monk stopped on a high tower, bent down and gently placed Ji Zihe on the pavilion, looking down at the scenery under his feet.

"Thank you Master for saving your life." Ji Zihe turned over and collapsed on the ground.

After running for so long, he was almost exhausted.Although this monk may be a liar, he is a human being. Compared with those monsters with malicious intentions, Ji Zihe only feels extra cordial when he sees him.

"Amitabha, the benefactor is being polite, why did the benefactor come here?" the monk asked with his hands clasped together, looking down at Ji Zihe.

"I don't know, I just looked at you, and then I suddenly entered this illusion. Master, do you know how to get out?"

The monk shook his head, "Who told you that this place is an illusion?"

"It's not an illusion, could it be real? But I was clearly in the hall just now, why did I suddenly go to another place?"

"There is a saying in Buddhism, one flower is one world, how do you know we are still in that world?"

"Ah, so here is it?"

"It's just a prison here."

"Prison?" Ji Zihe sat up and looked at the endless ancient buildings under the tower.The scenery is picturesque and beautiful, how can it be related to the prison.

"That's right, it's the prison. It's used to hold the treacherous monsters captured by the monks. This prison is the mural on the wall of the main hall. Here, if one's own spiritual power is exhausted but cannot be replenished, one cannot use spells. Buddhism emphasizes compassion and cannot bear to kill, so they set up this prison to imprison demons, so that they can listen to the Buddha's voice every day and return to the shore as soon as possible. It's just this There is a shortcoming of the murals. If you have poor concentration and look at them for a long time, you will be sucked into them, unable to extricate yourself, and become meals for monsters. See the houses below. Once, all the houses here represented a A monster, and then..."

"Stop, I don't want to hear the rest of the story." Ji Zihe interrupted his memory.

"Oh, why is that, aren't you interested at all?"

"That's not true, but I've also heard a saying that the more you know, the sooner you die. I don't want to die, so I don't want to know those secrets."

"You're an interesting scholar, well, I won't talk about it."

"Master, you're not a monk, are you?" Ji Zihe asked.

"nature."

"Then you are not a Taoist priest either."

"Correct."

"So, who are you?"

"Don't you want to know the secret?" the monk asked back.

"What kind of secret is this? We've known each other for a while. Isn't it normal to exchange identities and names?" Ji Zihe said as it should.

"Well, your observation is meticulous. Well, my surname is Shan, and my name is Ning. I don't have any special status, I'm just a juggler."

"I don't believe it. Judging from what you said to those banshees just now, you already knew that you would definitely come here. Tell me, what do you want me to do for you? Maybe take me out after it's done?"

"You still want to go out?" Trapped in the Absolute Spirit Wall, few people can resist the temptation of demons.Although they cannot use spiritual power, the talent of monsters does not require spiritual power to be used. Many monsters are born with the technique of charm. Even without the bonus of spiritual power, it is more than enough to seduce a mortal.Even many monks couldn't bear it, otherwise, how could the temple be empty.

"Of course, my friend is still waiting for me outside."

"Okay, I will take you away after I finish my work." If you are still alive by then.

"You haven't said that you want me to help you, aren't you afraid that I can't do it?"

"Let me continue to tell you the story, and you will understand after I tell you."

"Okay, tell me." Ji Zihe propped his chin with his hand, since it's all over, why doesn't he listen.

However, the liar monk did not continue the story of the previous wall painting, he told another story.

"In the previous dynasty, there was a son of an official family named Han who met a Taoist priest surnamed Shan. That Taoist could do magic tricks, and he was very valued by Mr. Han. He disappeared after walking with Mr. Han. Mr. Han was very surprised. , wanted to learn the magic of Taoist Shan, but was rejected by Taoist Shan. Taoist Shan said that his invisibility method only taught gentlemen and not villains, and he was afraid that the young man would use invisibility to do some bad things, so that he would become an accomplice to evil. The young master could not force him, but he held a grudge in his heart, so he wanted to find a way to teach him. So he ordered people to sprinkle fine dust on the ground to attract the Taoist priest, and ordered his servants to beat him. The Taoist priest used the invisibility technique, but his feet stepped on the fine dust Footprints will be left on the ashes, and there is no way to escape, only to be beaten severely. The Taoist was very angry after being beaten, and planned to leave. The Taoist returned to the residence unscathed, took out food from his sleeve, and entertained the people who took care of him. Servant. Mr. Han was very surprised when he heard about this, so he asked Taoist priest Shan to do another trick. The Taoist priest waved his hand, and a city appeared on the wall. The Taoist threw his luggage into the city gate and said goodbye to Mr. Han After that, he strode into the city and disappeared."

"Could it be that the city on that wall is the Absolute Spirit Wall?" Ji Zihe asked.

"That's not true. It's just a teleportation array. As for the city on the wall, it's just for bluffing people. Who told Mr. Han to beat someone? The Taoist is enshrined by him. It's not good to argue with him, but he is also a little angry. You have to scare him before you leave."

"Oh, but what does what you said have anything to do with the help you asked me for?" Ji Zihe seriously suspected that the Shan Taoist priest in the story was the monk himself, because they were all surnamed Shan.Could it be that he still wants to tell himself his autobiography?Then why doesn't he just start with his birth, waste of time.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you as I continue." The monk took out a wine gourd from nowhere, sat on the railing, leaned against the porch pillar, and drank lazily.

"That Taoist is not good at learning, so he drew a teleportation array, trying to get some attention, but he made a mistake." The monk chuckled lightly, as if recalling.

"There is a large mountain city. This is an old-fashioned story. A young Taoist priest met a beautiful girl. Soon, they fell in love. The girl is just a casual monk. She made a request to the Taoist priest. She I hope that my wedding can be blessed by the elders. The Taoist promised the girl and took her home. His family is one of the best in the cultivation world. The Taoist is the eldest son of the family and should be the heir of the family, but he was born Unruly, otherwise he would not go to the mortal world to cheat food and drink. Disappointed with what he did, his parents refused to preside over the marriage for him unless the Taoist priest could defeat his twin brother and become the real young master, It was recognized by the family again. In order to satisfy the girl's wish, the Taoist priest turned his head back and started to practice on his own initiative."

"The Taoist priest has a twin brother who looks exactly like him, but he has two temperaments. The younger brother was born to be the favored son of heaven, he cultivated the way of ruthlessness, and now he is a sword fairy. However, the irony is that if you want to be ruthless, you must Love first. This is probably the curse of twins, they fell in love with the same woman."

"The elder brother's talent is better than that of the younger brother, and he has enough experience, but he is really neglected in cultivation. To defeat the younger brother, he must spend a lot of effort, so he has very little time to spend with the girl. He knows best, if they want to switch their identities, even their parents won’t be able to notice, let alone others. The younger brother just despicably replaces the older brother’s identity, stealing the older brother’s happiness, until the day when he competes with the older brother, In order not to make the girl sad, he deliberately fell under the sword of his elder brother. The elder brother married the girl, and the despicable thief was still pretending, until one day, the elder brother accidentally broke through that the younger brother was having an affair with the girl..."

"What a tragedy." Ji Zihe looked at the monk with a little more sympathy, how sad it would be to be betrayed by his wife and brother at the same time!

"The elder brother fought with the younger brother. When they were both injured, the girl attacked them. The younger brother blocked the fatal blow for the elder brother and almost died. After that, the girl stole the treasure of their family and ran away. It turned out that the girl was not a human race at all. , but a monster. The reason why she married her brother was because of the treasure of the Shan family. My brother left the family, and no one knows where he is going."

"Then she really didn't recognize her elder brother and younger brother as two people?" Ji Zihe asked.All of a sudden, he ruined the two favored sons of heaven. This method is really clever.

"Haha, who knows." The monk poured a big gulp of wine into his mouth, and the clear liquid slid down his neck into his tattered monk's robe, soaking a large area.

"When I saw her again, it was during a battle organized by Buddhism to exterminate demons. At that time, she had become the demon king of the evil cave. Both my elder brother and younger brother participated in that battle, and my elder brother killed her with his own hands. The former lover. Before she died, the girl told them that she had a child in the clan land. During the great battle, all the living monsters were captured, and the eminent monk imprisoned them in the Absolute Spirit Wall. The eminent monk recited scriptures every day to inspire him. In order to avoid being discovered by the remaining monsters, he set up the Absolute Spirit Wall in this little-known Buddhist temple."

"You want to find that child?" Ji Zihe asked.

"Yes, then maybe, no, it must be my child." The monk said firmly.

"Well, even if it's your child, but I'm just a frail scholar, what can I do for you?" Ji Zihe didn't bother to complain about his self-confidence, he was wearing a green hat so high, but he was still so infatuated. Incredible.

"This place is so big, I won't be able to find it all in a short while. How many people should contribute. In this Absolute Spirit Wall, monsters can't use spells, and they can't even change back to their original forms. They can only rely on their bodies and a little talent. You just have to run away when you see monsters like you did just now, and you still have a chance to run away."

Ji Zihe: ...

You think too highly of me, just now, I was almost eaten by a monster.

"By the way, we don't have much time. We can't stay in this Absolute Spirit Wall for too long. The longer we stay, the more we will forget. After two days, I'm afraid we will even forget who we are and where we came from. "

"Ah, it's so scary." Ji Zihe suddenly remembered that the banshee named A Li had told him to hide here for a few days before sending him away.In this way, I'm afraid he is lying to him, just wait a few days for him to forget everything.

"It's just to make the monsters be more honest, but this thing has little effect on the monsters, but it has a big impact on the human race."

"So that's it. By the way, the one you didn't finish talking about before, why are there fewer and fewer monsters in the secret realm?"

"There is a golden-armored god in this Absolute Spirit Wall. He is the guard here. He has a high level of cultivation and is not affected by this Absolute Spirit Wall. Most of the demons who disobeyed his discipline were killed by him, and the rest, some died of old age. Some degenerated into their original form, and some were killed and eaten by other monsters."

"Share food?"

"So, don't trust the feelings of monsters, they have no heart at all." The monk put away the gourd, stood up, and patted his ragged clothes.

"I have one last question."

"You ask."

"Are you an older brother or a younger brother?"

The monk raised his head, looked at Ji Zihe, squinted his eyes, and smiled compassionately, "My old man, it's my brother."

Ji Zihe originally wanted to search separately with the monk, but the monk was unwilling to be separated from him, so he insisted on staying together for more care.

"Master Shan, is your child a boy or a girl?" Ji Zihe asked after the monk.

"I don't know."

"Then does he have any tokens, signs or something?"

"I don't know."

"I don't know this, and I don't know that. How to find this? To put it bluntly, even if we meet him, we may not recognize him."

"If he stood in front of me, I would definitely recognize him."

Ji Zihe secretly rolled his eyes, not knowing who gave the monk his confidence, "Since this Absolute Spirit Wall is so dangerous... are you sure he's still alive?"

"How could my bloodline die in such a place?"

Ji Zihe deeply felt that it was a mistake for him to follow this great monk. This person was even more unreliable than the little monster named A Li he had seen before.

"By the way, benefactor, what's your name? I don't know your name yet." The great monk said suddenly.

"This is the fifth time you've asked my name."

"There are still such things. I'm really sorry. My memory is not very good. I can't remember things that are not important. Tell me again, what is your name, I will definitely remember it this time."

You said the same thing last time, Ji Zihe pouted, "Remember, my surname is Ji, and my first name is Zihe."

"Ji Zihe, that's a good name." The woman in blue clapped her hands and walked slowly with her long legs.

Ji Zihe's first reaction was to hug the great monk's arm, "Master, hurry up, why are you standing there, fly!"

"I can't fly anymore, you look around carefully." The great monk said.

Ji Zihe looked left and right, why suddenly there were monsters everywhere, even on the roof.Unfortunately, it seems that they were ambushed by monsters.

"See how you escape this time!" The woman in blue laughed.

"Escape? Why do we have to escape?" The great monk took out a stone, and the complexion of the woman in blue changed drastically.

"You actually brought a spirit stone!"

There is no aura in Absolute Spirit Wall, but it can be brought from outside.Lingshi is not only a currency, but also a kind of cultivation resource.It contains rich spiritual energy, and is divided into high-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade according to the quality of spiritual energy. The purchasing power of different grades of spiritual stones is different.Of course, because of the aura contained in it, it will be regarded as a currency.

It is conceivable why the expressions of the monsters changed drastically after the great monk took out the spirit stone.Obviously everyone is out of battery, but you brought a power bank. Is this cheating?

"A person is floating in the rivers and lakes, how can he not have some money to hang around." As he said, the spirit stone in the monk's hand quickly faded.The aura in it was absorbed by him, and the spirit stone became an ordinary stone.After replenishing his aura, he threw the waste rock, and a long sword appeared in his hand.

Ji Zihe is very good at watching the form, which is obviously saved, "Master, come on, beat them all to the ground!"

The monk turned his head sideways and whispered into Ji Zihe's ear, "Look at my outfit, do I look like a rich man?"

Ji Zihe:? ? ?

The monk clicked his tongue, "I only have that piece of spirit stone, which is still low-grade, how can I beat it?"

Ji Zihe:! ! !

After a long time, you are actually pretending to bluff people!

"It doesn't matter if you have spirit stones, we have a lot of people, let's see how long your spirit stones can last!" The woman in blue took out a kitchen knife in a down-to-earth way, and the other banshees also took out various "weapons" ".

Ji Zihe bet that he must be smiling uglier than crying at this moment, and flattered him, "Well, sisters, don't get angry, it's not good for girls to fight and kill. Look at my brother, he is big and round, Five big three rough, if I hurt you, then how guilty I should be. You should go away quickly. After a few days, my big brother has run out of spirit stones. If you come again, won’t you be able to do nothing by then? ?”

"How do I know how many spirit stones you have? They say men's mouths are deceitful ghosts. How can I believe them? If you really feel pity for fragrances and treasures, why don't you just catch them?" The woman in blue laughed.

Ji Zihe's face was about to freeze with a smile, "Well, why don't we discuss it again? Our meat is really not tasty, do you want to change the food..."

Before Ji Zihe finished speaking, he was interrupted by the woman in blue, "So you are a coward who is afraid of death, so why are you talking so much nonsense, sisters, come on!"
